Congress dropped funding for an LGBT center in Pennsylvania after it came to light that the place hosted sexual fetish parties, with Democrat lawmakers who sought the funding withdrawing their support.

The House of Representatives was set to vote on a spending bill on Wednesday that earmarked $1 million for the William Way LGBTQ Community Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. William Way’s funding sparked controversy, with social commentator Libs of TikTok highlighting the issue of sex parties through an X post that went viral.
